The MINOS experiment will generate a beam of neutrinos from tertiary proton interactions at Fermilab and direct them toward a detector 735 km away in the Soudan Mine. Reliability of the beamline components is paramount and although a near detector exists, a change in the beamline configuration is observed using only neutrino interactions over a period of days. We present an instrumentation system using tertiary muons which can provide an instant feedback system for monitoring the quality of the beamline. Radiation-hard ion chambers have been designed and tested at the Brookhaven ATF facility. Results of the tests will be presented.
